Looks like the dandelions are extra happy today as it’s warming up…
and it looks like they brought their friends!!!

Kicking off a beautiful Spring morning with a vase full of aromatic lilac blooms.
Such a shame that these beauties are so short-lived… as are most Spring flowers!

Trees are blooming… Spring is here! The temps are still a bit chilly,
but it’s nice having the flowers hang on just a wee bit longer!

On a full & dreary rainy morning… it’s nice to kick-off the day with a pop of Spring colors in the neighborhood! Beautiful azaleas blooming just around the corner!

Spring is in the air… and we’re at the end of our “forsythia season” with most bushes petering-out. But I found a “protected” one this morning still in full bloom. So nice to see Nature’s colors again… other than the “gray & brown” of late Winter!

Weed or flower?… not quite sure???

But this cute little guy is a welcome addition either way!!!
A fun pop of yellow in the garden during early Spring!

Another warm Spring day… and it looks like little Theo may have found the first dandelion of the season! Luckily, he had the perfect little vase to put it in!!! Thanks for sharing Allyn!
